We can offer Dart LS Next blocks in any stage of completion from "in-the-box" to a complete crate engine. Our LS Next builds have been featured on four separate occasions by Engine Labs. Our fully machined blocks (as shown below) can put you on the track to getting the kind of results shown in those Engine Labs articles and far beyond what is possible using out-of-the -box parts.

Description

Why the Dart LS Next block?

The LS Next block is the first significant change in the bottom end architecture of the LS engine platform. By eliminating the “Y-block” design and utilizing conventional style main caps and oil pans, (stock pans can be used with Moroso oil pan spacers) Dart has addressed the problems resulting from the LS engine’s separated crankcase bays. Windage is greatly reduced, resulting in increased power and improved lubrication.

This design change led to several additional improvements. The main webs are significantly stronger because the bay to bay breathing windows are eliminated in Dart’s design. Deleting the windows also allows the cylinder barrels to be extended by .3750” into the crank case, providing greater piston support at the bottom of the stroke. Two standard bore sizes are available, 4.000” and 4.125”. Maximum bore of 4.220” for iron and 4.165” for aluminim, or optional Darton M.I.D. sleeve kit allowing up to 4.220” bore.

All stock and aftermarket LS components can be utilized. Conventional style 4-bolt steel main caps are used. A 5/8” thick full deck design is utilized for superior strength, with six head bolts per cylinder to provide secure clamping. Dart’s priority main oiling system ensures high rpm reliability and includes provision for oil restrictors in the lifter valley.

Features:

• Dart’s LS Next block is cast in the USA with premium cast iron
alloy or aluminum

• Conventional style 4-bolt steel main caps with 7/16” bolts are used

• Full main webbing for maximum bottom end strength

• Cylinder barrels are extended by .3750” at the bottom, providing greater
piston support for all combinations

• 9.240” deck height, with options of 9.450" are available which allows
for a possible effective barrel length of 9.825” deck block
